    Hi fellow Bootsters!

    Have just got back from my shop at boots this evening. I managed to swap my radiance serum that I bought by mistake yesterday and picked up three of the time delay wrinkle reducing night serum for £20 on 3 4 2. I saw on here that they had "similar ingredients to those in P & P". When I got them home and compared both lists of ingredients I was very surprised to see that the ingredients are not just similar they are EXACTLY THE SAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I looked on boots.com and these are sold out although there were loads in my boots today. Is this exactly the same stuff?????????????? Cos surely we should all be stocking up with this especially if the P & P is gonna be more expensive and hard to get hold of?????????? Plus wouldn't it sell on Ebay too???? I mean it's less than £7 a bottle if you buy it now while it's on 3 4 2.

    Should I go and clear the shelf of it?:confused:
  • strange !. wonder if it contains the same measures or strengths tho

    Hi,

    even though this is not boots related, it is a followup on the above post: the subscription sounded really great and I was going to do it, but there was the mention of "The minimum subscription term is 12 months"... So, sorry for the obvious question: is it at all possible to cancel after 6 months and still keep the offer? Thanks.

    Most of the offers say that but I have had loads of subs in the past and I always cancel them as soon as the first debit comes out of the bank, I have never had a letter or phonecall about it and its so easy to cancel if you bank online.

    If you like the sound of it then go for it as it really is a good deal with the £30 worth of Avene.

    I phoned Boots CS up earlier as I had problems with my orders.

    One order had two of the products boxes crushed, I couldn't sell them like that and she was very apologetic and gave me 500 points:T

    I then got confused about another order where I had ordered some wipes that were on bogof and on another order, some different ones that weren't on bogof (but I had forgotten about the 2nd order).

    I told her that there was only 1 pack of wipes in the order when there should have been two, she refunded me the price of the wipes, it was only later after checking my online orders that I realised I hadn't even got the order yet with the bogof wipes! (call me dumb I know)

    I also got another 500 points for a different order where my code hadn't worked. (am not sure it was valid either!)

    My points total has gone up alarmingly due to all this buying of p&p, I am thinking of saving it to buy sale items in the New Year (if I can last that long :rotfl: )

    Has anyone else had an email about the p&p being in stock tomorrow morning?

    (should I not have said that I wonder...)

    can you just sell the p&p on ebay just the same (good to get points as compensation too tho) im sure theres plenty of people who have been selling unused bottles without boxes theyv had stored away?
